Description

The Matrox Monarch LCS allows you to simultaneously stream and record HDMI/SDI-based video. Expanding on the Monarch HDX, the Monarch LCS features two HDMI inputs, one for video sources and one for computer sources, plus one SDI input. Its dual encoders can process up to two of these three inputs simultaneously. Live content preview is available in both HDMI and SDI outputs. The Monarch LCS is designed to provide a mix of live video footage and/or SDI/HDMI presentation material. Suitable for on-line courses or lectures, video of the instructor can be displayed alongside the class material being referenced.

Multiple Operating Modes

The Monarch LCS has two H264 encoders which process each HDMI / SDI signal with a resolution of up to 1080p30. These dual streams make multiple modes including PiP, side by side, and dual isolated layouts possible. Select newer third-party video players enable viewers as well as operators to choose layouts. Switcher mode is another LCS option, offering operators on-the-fly input selection throughout their event.

Everything on the same signal

Mismatched audio and video signals are a thing of the past with the frame synchronizer of Monarch LCS. Frame rate differences are eliminated by synching the computer and audio signals to the videocamera signal.

Friendly configuration

The Monarch LCS Command Center offers easy operation via any device (tablet, etc.) supporting standard web-browsing software (Internet Explorer and Safari fully validated). There are preset encoding and layout options for effortless operation or you can create and save up to eight user-defined setting profiles. Advanced network administrators can employ any VMS software (available separately) to use command controls with the LCS.
